LOV

The LOV (Light House of the Valley) Movement is an alliance of Christian pastors in the Coachella Valley. LOV started with a group of pastors meeting monthly to pray and seek unity and God’s blessing for their communities. Through much prayer LOV has grown to include a cross denominational group of pastors, churches, para-church groups and market place leaders.

LOV sensed a need for the unified body of Christ to begin Praying, Caring, and Sharing the love of Christ to the Coachella Valley. To accomplish this goal, LOV invited Dr. Mike MacIntosh and The Festival of Life to partner with them in bringing a valley-wide evangelistic movement to the Coachella Valley.

Festival of Life

The Festival of Life is a unique approach to citywide evangelism. The concept of the Festival of Life began almost 20 years ago as Mike MacIntosh, with a passion to share the gospel, began preaching around the world in such places as China, Uganda, Poland, Burma, Thailand and Russia. Mike has always believed in the importance of equipping the saints and sending them out to do the work of the ministry. Therefore, Mike would invite several pastors and small groups of people to join him on these mission trips. It was out of these early evangelistic efforts that his vision for bringing larger teams to do an extensive multi-faceted outreach was born. Since then, the Festival of Life has been held in twenty cities in six different countries, reaching well over a million people with the gospel of Jesus Christ.
